  • My new daily driver!

    It's a 2009 Subaru Legacy 3.0R. 85k, one owner, dealer maintained bla bla bla. I traded my '04 Forester w/212,000 in on it.
    Not going to do much as there are very few parts available (thankfully). Probably some 18s, lower it, tint and get it breathing better.

    Nice choice! Great car, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Not a fan of leather though but to each their own.
    Miss driving sooooo bad! Need to get a car on the road ASAP!

      Thanks! We decided quite sometime ago that we feel no need to drive anything but Soobs. We've had nothing but the best of luck, great service at the dealer plus I've got a good friend that's a teck there.
      As for the leather... it's a used car, what can ya do. We also looked at an 07 GT that was gunmetal with charcoal interior. Nice car but they wanted the world for it. Plus my "Teck friend" suggested against the turbo vs. the H6.

            I'm an auto tech as well and have worked on numerous STi's and Legacy's. Love the Legacy GT, nice car to drive that also has hair on it's balls. Any reason why your bud advised against the turbo version? I know Subies have weak ring lands and too much boost usually means your rings wind up in the oil pan and you gotta drop about 6K for a new motor. Other than that they seem fairly strong.
            Anyways, lol, clean ride! Looks good!

              You covered it! No timing belt in the H6 either. Sadly no tuning available... probably for the best. Keeps me focused on the car in the garage!

                I'm curious, do the H-6 engines have that same characteristic "burble" that the 4's do if you open up the exhaust side of things? If so, do it, I love that sound

                    I love these cars. Something about them gets to me... I find them very good looking cars, especially with a slight drop. Nice find for sure!

                    That's funny, I prefer my cars to be running...

                    To each their own I guess.

                      Ya most people would prefer a running car. Leather is just not my thing. Thanks for the input though
